I've started C25K multiple times over the years and even finished it twice but this is the first time I've done the OHR program. I'm in week 4 and this will be the first week I go beyond 30 minute runs. I've run up to 50 minutes in the past when I was trying to do MAF training but it's been a couple of months and I was running slower then i walk. I'm slow to begin with so basically I was just marginally not going backwards when I was trying MAF. Right now I'm averaging about a 13 minute mile when I do the 30 minutes so I'm not even up to 3 miles yet but I'm hoping the added time and distence will help with the speed. Is anyone else doing OHR right now?

FrancesR- check out the FAQ here: http://www.runningahead.com/groups/C25K/Forum/5d8a4a76c0424a4d8817c0e3f77a0b7d I'm planning on trying this out after my 5k on mother's day. Right now I'm holding steady running 30+ minutes. mjwithtwins- we're at similar paces - my easy runs are at 12:33/mile... I can do a 5k in ~37min. I'll let you know when I start the OHR in earnest.

Hi, mjwithtwins. We've got a couple people who were signed up for the OHR program, but they've not updated since Febuary so I don't know if they're still at it or not. Sefkhet and olivars22 were both doing OHR as of Febuary. I went ahead and put you on our graph at week 4 of OHR. If you'd like to see your progress on the graph, whenever you change a week, go to http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?key=p2tq-nMzOyRkCmT2fM62mHw&hl=en and put in your username, week, and OHR. The graph displays on the home page of this group. Smile
